New Religions or Logic of a 7 year-old

The other night at the dinner table, Maia was telling a story about someone at school. Mackenna asked, "Is she Christian?" 

Maia said, "I don't know." 

Mackenna said, "Oh, is she Kwanzan?"

Everyone over the age of seven got a good chuckle out of that. When we explained that that is not a religion, she responded, "Well, is she Hanukkan?" We tried to explain that is called "Jewish," but she doesn't believe us. 

I guess it does kind of make logical sense that if people who celebrate Christmas are Christian, then people who celebrate Kwanza are Kwanzan and people who celebrate Hanukkah are Hanukkans!

Yes, that makes perfect sense. I love her logic :).
